From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Jeffrey A Law To: egcs-announce@cygnus.com, gnu-gcc-announce@prep.ai.mit.edu, compilers@iecc.com Cc: egcs@cygnus.com, gcc2@cygnus.com Subject: egcs-1.1 release Date: Thu, 04 Dec 1997 14:03:00 -0000 Message-id: <13607.904839775@hurl.cygnus.com> X-SW-Source: 1997-1998-old/msg00009.html egcs-1.1 September 3, 1998 We are pleased to announce the release of egcs-1.1. EGCS is a free software project to further the development of the GNU compilers using an open development environment. egcs-1.1 is a major new release of the egcs compiler system. It has been extensively tested and is believed to be stable and suitable for widespread use. egcs-1.1 is based on an June 6, 1998 snapshot of the gcc-2.8 development sources; it contains all of the new features found in gcc-2.8.1 as well as all new development from gcc2 up to June 6, 1998. egcs also contains many improvements and features not found in gcc2 or in older versions of egcs. * Global common subexpression elimination and global constant/copy propagation (aka gcse) * Ongoing improvements to the alias analysis support to allow for better optimizations throughout the compiler. * Integrated Fortran compiler and runtime libraries based on g77-0.5.24-19980804. * Vastly improved C++ compiler and integrated C++ runtime libraries. * Fixes for the /tmp symlink race security problems. * New targets including mips16, arm-thumb and 64 bit PowerPC. See the new features page for a more complete list of new features found in egcs-1.1 releases. The egcs-1.1 release includes installation instructions in both HTML and plaintext forms (see the INSTALL directory in the toplevel directory of the egcs-1.1 distribution). However, we also keep the most up to date installation instructions and build/test status on our web page. We will update those pages as new information becomes available. The egcs project would like to thank the numerous people that have contributed new features, test results, bugfixes, etc. This amazing group of volunteers is what makes egcs successful. This announcement (and others) can be found on the egcs project's home page. http://egcs.cygnus.com/egcs -- You can ftp egcs-1.1 either as a full release, or as diffs from the egcs-1.0.3a release from the following sites: Preferred US Site: US (Stanford) go.cygnus.com:/pub/ftp.cygnus.com/egcs Master site: US (California) egcs.cygnus.com:/pub/egcs Mirror Sites: US (east coast) ftp.goof.com:/pub/pcg/egcs US (east coast) cambridge.cygnus.com:/pub/egcs US (Arizona) ftp.ninemoons.com:/pub/mirrors/egcs UK sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk:/Mirrors/egcs.cygnus.com/pub/egcs Austria gd.tuwien.ac.at:/gnu/egcs/ France ftp.ilog.fr:/pub/Mirrors/egcs France ftp.lip6.fr:/pub/egcs France (Brittany) ftp.irisa.fr:/pub/mirrors/egcs Czech Republic sunsite.mff.cuni.cz:/pub/GNU/egcs Czech Republic ftp.gts.cz:/pub/MIRRORS/ftp.cygnus.com/pub/egcs Denmark sunsite.auc.dk:/pub/egcs Germany (Berlin) ftp.fu-berlin.de:/unix/languages/egcs Germany ftp.gwdg.de:/pub/cygnus/egcs Germany ftp.mpi-sb.mpg.de:/pub/gnu/mirror/egcs.cygnus.com/egcs Germany ftp.uni-trier.de:/pub/languages/c/implementation/egcs Poland (Warsaw) sunsite.icm.edu.pl:/pub/programming/egcs Poland ftp.task.gda.pl:/mirror/egcs.cygnus.com/pub/egcs Sweden ftp.sunet.se:/pub/gnu/egcs Brasil ftp.unicamp.br:/pub/gnu/=EXTRA=/cygnus/egcs Portugal ftp.lca.uevora.pt:/pub/egcs Romania ftp.lbi.ro:/mirrors/ftp.cygnus.com/pub/egcs Australia/NZ moshpit.cygnus.com:/pub/egcs Athens, Greece ftp.ntua.gr:/pub/gnu/egcs Nijmegen, Netherlands ftp.nluug.nl:/pub/languages/egcs Tokyo, Japan ftp.dti.ad.jp:/pub/lang/egcs Japan ftp.win.or.jp:/pub/lang/egcs Japan ftp.telewaynet.ad.jp:/pub/lang/egcs Japan ftp.lab.kdd.co.jp:/lang/egcs Taejon, Korea cair-archive.kaist.ac.kr:/pub/gnu/egcs Finland ftp.funet.fi:/mirrors/ftp.cygnus.com/pub/egcs Canada ftp.crc.ca:/pub/packages/egcs Russia ftp.nc.orc.ru:/pub/egcs Japan (Aizu University) ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp:/pub/lang/C/pcg/egcs Taiwan linux.cis.nctu.edu.tw:/pub/packages/pcg/egcs France ftp.maisel.int-evry.fr:/pub/linux/pentium/egcs
